isnt overdrive on 7405, its a dutch station.

That's Radio Piepzender a legal private station from Zwolle NL. Overdrive was quite strong on 7395kHz, some splatter at times from Piepzender until they turned the mod down a bit.

Tried the other WSM SDR, (there appear to be 2) copyable but fainter. Nothing on Twente, which I still find interesting - leads me to make assumptions about Overdrive's antenna for this band. Also tried a Scottish SDR (can't remember which one now, but nothing heard).
Nothing heard on ground wave (despite my proximity I wasn't sure if I'd pick anything up) and as ever, nothing at all heard on 101.4 apart from the occasional "Smooth" lift, today.

I know he's on right now as I've just been listening on the Weston SDR I picked him up on yesterday. 24332 if I was going to have a go at a SINPO. However - I tried a bunch of other SDRs just now including Groningen and a couple in Cheshire - nothing on any of them! Couldn't get a connection from the 2 County Mayo SDRs on the Kiwi index page I'm using, which is a shame, and again nothing on Twente which has been my go-to SDR for HF for years.

Fair play to Overdrive for putting something on - it's not trivial. I'll keep trying the Irish SDRs and others, it would be nice to finally be able to hear their content. It's a tough listen on Weston.

So have the cloggies abandoned 7405 and moved to 7395kHz? just checked 7405kHz at 1900 bst loud buzz saw jammer across 7400-05

It seems so, Overdrive was on 7395khz but I noticed like you that Piepzender suddenly jumped on their frequency. So I don't blame Radio Overdrive for nicking Piepzender frequency of 7405khz. Check mate I'd say, wouldn't you. Overdrive has a good strong signal now. I'm not sure what power their on but it's bloody strong. If they wanted to be funny, Overdrive could easily do some damage to the signal of Piedzender if they were inclined. Piepzender need to make up their minds what channel they gonna use
